I have distributed MOST of the digital rewards for BANSHEE BEACH!
With three exceptions:
- Obviously, BANSHEE BEACH itself is still in the editorial process.
- The poetry collection is waiting on a final editorial pass-through and formatting.
- And I need clarification from Backerkit on how to release the cross-collaboration backer rewards.
Everything else just went out. Please let me know if there's a problem with them!

Surveys for Banshee Beach have just gone out!
Be sure to fill them out as quickly as possible.
As for distribution: most digital rewards will be distributed over the next few days. Banshee Beach itself is at the mercy of the editing process, but the project's success allowed me to take a big bite out of how long it'll take to get the book out. I'll keep you posted!
Also, be sure to check out our pre-order store!
Also-also, my new book LUNATIC'S HOPE is coming out today. Some of you will be getting an e-ARC of the book as part of the Backerkit, so that may not be as high a priority as it would be normally.

Smoke tests for surveys have just gone out!
If you get it, please fill it out. Also, let us know if there's any problem with the survey itself. Assuming everything works, the surveys will go out for everybody else next week.
Oh, and I've opened the preorder store. Will also be talking it up next week.
That's it!

What happens next with Banshee Beach!
Right now we are finishing up the pre-survey process for Banshee Beach. Surveys will not be going out before next week, because Backerkit is fairly adamant in giving backers a full two weeks to straighten out any credit card 'stuff.' I will be doing a 'smoke test' to establish that the surveys are working, so you might get your survey a couple of days early. The preorder store will also open next week, so if you wanted to pick up more things then, there's your chance.
Fulfilment:
Fulfilment:
- Digital awards go out as they come available. For the Frozen Dreams and Tinsel Rain e-books, the Fermi Resolution Companion, and the Lunatic's Hope E-ARC, that means 'right away.' The Fermi Resolution poetry collection should hopefully be ready for viewing by the end of the month. The Banshee Beach e-book will not be ready before next year (2027). We made enough to make it possible for me to be able to pay my editor much earlier than I would have been able to do so otherwise, but the editing process itself takes time.
- Physical awards are most likely going to go out when Banshee Beach itself is fulfilled. Again, that will be 2027.
Also note that physical awards are US shipping only, with the exception of bookplates (by themselves). Those I can simply mail without having to charge extortionate rates for them.
Reach out if you have any questions!

Annnnnnd we're done!
Thanks to everybody who participated in the Backerkit.
What's next? A lot of infrastructure work. Money gets collected, Pledge Manager gets built, I figure out what the pre-order store and the digital distribution will look like. I do plan to release the digital stuff as early as is feasible, so keep an eye for that stuff as it comes available. Stuff like shipping and physical fulfilment will come later.
In the meantime: again, thanks for backing, and I'll be quiet now. I know, I know: first time for everything, right?
